Edinburgh Zoo celebrated 100 years of their fantastic penguins, so we thought we’d join in the fun with some penguin fashion! The pandas may be the zoo’s most famous residents these days, but we have always had a soft spot for the fantastic penguins!

Penguin fashion – or marvellous monochrome – makes a massive return this spring/summer with black and white all over the place! You can be in penguin fashion in whatever way you like – from stripes, to spots, to on-trend geometric patterns.

If it’s stripes that you fancy, then be careful – horoizontal stripes can give the illusion of width, so not ideal on a skirt if you have larger hips, but perfect if you want to add a bit of width in that area. Oh, and look, one of the penguin’s pals, the zebra, has got in on the act! Make a bold statement with a striped skirt and top – add bright coloured accessories for a fun look.

If this penguin fashion look is too much, then how about just a nod to our feathered friends, with some black and white accessories. A clutch bag, a pair of boots or shoes, or a necklace is a great way to channel your inner penguin!!
